Shaquille O’Neal wasn’t only one of the most dominant players of his era, he was perhaps its greatest showman.

O’Neal embraced the entertainment aspect of his job as a professional basketball player during his 19-year career, and All-Star weekend was a time when he could truly let his playful personality shine.

This highlight, taken from the 2007 event in Las Vegas, features O’Neal kissing Tracy McGrady on the head after slamming home an offensive rebound. O’Neal had a prickly side to his personality to be sure, but this is a reminder of just how gregarious he could be when performing under the spotlight.

Will we ever see another Shaquille O’Neal? Both in skill set and in personality? I doubt it but only time will tell. All I know is is those are some massive shoes to fill, both figuratively and literally.
